Abstract
The structures of heterobinuclear complex, [AuIPtII(CN)2(PH2CH2PH2)2]+ (2), in the ground and lowest-energy triplet excited states were optimized by the MP2 and unrestricted MP2 methods, respectively. The metal-localized transition shortens the Au-Pt distance about 0.321 Å in the excited state with respect to 2.912 Å one in the ground state. This is further evident in the calculated stretching frequencies and bond orders of Au-Pt. The experimental absorption spectra are well reproduced by the time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations. The present investigation was compared with the previous results of the homobinuclear [Au2I (PH2 CH2 PH2)2]2 + (1) and trans - [Pt2II (CN)4 (PH2 CH2 PH2)2] (3).
